LOS ANGELES - Brittany Murphy, the star of "Clueless" and "8 Mile," died from pneumonia, with prescription drugs and anemia also playing a role, a coroner's official said Thursday.
The Dec. 20 death of the actress was accidental and likely could have been prevented if Murphy had seen a doctor sooner, Assistant Chief Coroner Ed Winter said. He noted, however, that she did have an appointment scheduled with a physician a few days after she died. Winter declined to specify what types of drugs were involved in her death and said further details would be released in several weeks when the report was completed. He also said there was no evidence of wrongdoing. Winter said Murphy's community-acquired pneumonia was serious and proved lethal when combined with the medications and iron deficiency anemia. Murphy died at age 32 after collapsing in her Hollywood Hills home. Her mother and husband have said the actress didn't abuse prescription medications or have an eating disorder. Attempts to reach them for further comment were not immediately successful. Murphy's husband, Simon Monjack, and her mother, Sharon Murphy, told investigators the actress had been experiencing flu-like symptoms in the days before she died. Monjack told The Associated Press last month that his wife did take several prescriptions, including an anti-seizure drug, but did not abuse the medications. He said she had been taking over-the-counter Robitussin for her recent sickness. Dr. Michael Baden, a former chief medical examiner in New York City, said the quantities and type of drugs Murphy was taking were key to understanding how she died. "One doesn't die of pneumonia, usually, that quickly," Baden said. He said the use of some prescription medications can lead to pneumonia. "It sounds more like it's a drug-related than a natural pulmonary pneumonia," said Baden, who did not work on the Murphy case but has served as an expert witness in numerous high-profile deaths. |

I'm not buying the OTC drug crap. That chick was skin and bones. Really cute, but needed to put on 10 or 20 pounds. Even in Hollyweird, she was a stick. I'm not saying she's guilty, but it wouldn't surprise me if she was on at least one narcotic.

From Wikipedia... On February 4, 2010, the Los Angeles County coroner stated that the primary cause of Murphy's death was pneumonia, with secondary factors of iron-deficiency anemia and multiple drug intoxication. The drugs ingested were all said to be prescription medications. Further details on the drugs involved are due to be released in around two weeks when a full report is published.[32][33] Last edited by iluvmyvettes; 02-05-2010 at 5:21pm. |

I think the full toxicology report will show what we all expect, prescription or otherwise.
